Danny’s Bakery

Latino coffee shop with sweet bread and pastries. Across from Plainfield Train station. They also have tamales. Get a quick cup of joe in morning jump on the train to work.

This bakery definitely has the neighborhood feel to it. You walk in and you see people enjoying a coffee, pastry, and reading a newspaper. The coffee is pretty good. They have a large display of breads in the display case, but I am not familiar with the names. With the exception of corn bread, the breads looked to have a Spanish background, I also inferred this from the patrons and the spanish newspapers neatly stacked in a corner. I tried to ask what the name of one particular bread was which looked like an «ensaymada», but the attendant was not sure either. Nonetheless I tried it. It was interesting, it had a star anis flavor along with what looked to be black sesame seeds. Nonetheless the place has a neighborhood charm all its own and its a nice place to stop by if you are in Plainfield, on a cold, snowy, day to have a coffee and pastry.
